About Us

Overview

The USF iSchool Responsive Librarianship Lab (RLL) is the umbrella program for the delivery of bibliotherapy services to the USF community. It is part of the USF School of Information's library (LIBR & INFO SCI) and can be found on WorldCat.

The RLL team is a multidisciplinary team led by professors from the USF School of Information and a diverse array of graduate and undergraduate students. Each team member brings a unique set of expertise and talents to our research and initiatives. 

Researchers at the RLL address key challenges at the intersection of people, information, and technology in multidisciplinary ways with a vision that drives our research to impact the everyday lives of our community. Using evidence-based methodologies grounded in the Social Sciences and computational tools from the Digital Humanities, researchers at the RLL have created a unique, four-track text-based therapy scheme that provides real results for library users.   

The Henrietta Smith Library serves as the hub for all of the RLL's research initiatives and is part of the USF School of Information's library (LIBR & INFO SCI), an information center dedicated to research and the education of the school's Library and Information Science (LIS) students.
